Details on Material and Insulation
Information on the dialog Material and insulation in 3D air duct construction.
In this dialog you can define the default settings for the duct and insulation material to be used. In addition, you can subsequently assign material and/or insulation to ducts and round ducts that have already been drawn, or pick their material and/or insulation from the drawing. The settings in this dialog can be saved in template drawings (*.dwt) so that when a new drawing is created, these default settings are already defined.
You are here:
Material
In the Material section, you specify whether a rectangular duct, oval duct or round duct is used by selecting the corresponding checkbox. Using the drop-down lists, you can determine the material to be used.
Reload and overwrite existing tables
Allows you to reload the material table saved in the drawing. This allows any materials that may have been lost to be recovered. If reloading the table is not sufficient, the materials must be reassigned to the components.
Insulation
In the Insulation section, you can specify where the insulation is to be placed by selecting the appropriate checkbox. Using the drop-down lists, you can determine the insulation material to be used and specify the measurements of the insulation in the Thickn. input field.
Get <: Allows you to pick the material and insulation properties of already drawn ducts.
Assign <: Allows you to assign the specified material and/or insulation properties to already drawn ducts.
